@ELLSAChat Hello from Shenzhen! Our very first chapter meeting :)

[ELLSA @ELLSAChat]

#ELLSAPD happens in 20 minute cycles. A prompt will be posted and you have 15 minutes to think, discuss, and reflect. Spend the last 5 minutes of the cycle posting on here and browsing what others have to say.

You can always read and respond afterwards too so don't rush!

[ELLSA @ELLSAChat]

We extended the deadline to submit #ELLSA2024 presentation proposals because we want YOU to present! Have you transferred what you have learned from a book, podcast, or video into a classroom? Share it with us at the conference! @TanKHuynh @KanakoSuwa @ISPPCambodia @MsAlis_class

Moving to a new school it is so important to take time to really understand the people, children, culture and context of the school - takes time but long term hopefully efforts will be more impactful. #leadershipmatters #internationalteacher

Choosing to invalidate the votes of people who put you in power is ... a bold choice.

And it should be a career-ending one.

[Darcy Coonan @DCCoonan]

A few of the many amazing things already happening with collaboration in the ES! #risrocks #Collaboration

[Darcy Coonan @DCCoonan]

@Claire_L_Myers Agreed! Teachers can help build metacognition about words through conversations while playing, modeling how to think about words during read alouds, etc. Never too young to start.

[Mara Hansen @mara_teaches]

Been thinking about how all my literacy data fits together (WIDA, NWEA MAP, F&P). What I created is not a comprehensive list - but a starting place! Would love to hear your thoughts on how you use lit data for T&Ling. #ESL #ell #ela #tesol
